events here recorded took place, when,
on the sacred day of the Hegira, at the
same hour. aud in storm of thunder
hail and rain, like that which had taken
place at Constantinople on the same
day the previous year, two men entered
the mosque of the Sultana-Valide,
called Yeni-Djami. One was Ahasverus
the Wandering jew. and the other was
Mahmoud, the dervish. Soon as the
public prayers were over both sailed
forth into the ..hall of shoes" and
second interchange of foot-gear took
place. The false jew, Mahmoud, got
back his well-furred boots and went
back home to his villa and wines at

Bathing.

Statistics collected by DIR. Robe, show
thta five-sixths of the inhabitants ofalI
cities in this country have no facilities
for bathing, excepting such as are
afforded by pail and sponge, or an
easily accessible river. lake, or some
other body of water. The establishment
of public baths is urgently recommend
ed, beth as a sanitary as well rs a moral
measure. Tub, or pool, baths are OBJ
jectiOnable both on account of the ex-
pense and lack of privacy in the latter.
The spray bath, in use in the French
and German army barracks, are recon-
mended. These are not at all expensive
either in the first cost or the admins
tration, and allow each bather absolute
privacy, and the opportunity for a
cleansing in clear water.
Public baths should be open the year
round, and notonly during the summer

Type-writing by telegraph is one of
he latest novelties in the electrical
world. An old Philadelphia telegraph
operator named Mclaughlin has invent
ed typewriter which transmits writ
ing by telegraph, and by means of du-
plicate machine at the other end of the
wire, the writing is transcribed at one
and the same time that the sender is
operating, the shifting of the carriage
at the end of the line being automatic.
The plan contemplated is to sell the
machine to subscribers, who, by the
system of central exchange, the tele-
phone, can call up another subscriber,
and whether the person addressed be at
his machine or not, message can be
sent him, which he can read at his
machine when he returns. No third
person can tap the wires or take a
message which is being sent.

The untimely death which annually car

prime of youth, is indeed terrible. The
first approach of consumption is insidious
and the suffere- himself is the most uncon-
scious of its approach. One or the most
alarming symptoms of this dread disease is,
in fact, the ineradicable hope, which turks in
the heart of the victim, preventing him from
taking timely steps to arrest the malady.
That il can be arrested in its earlier stages
